Praises for Our North Shore Surf Lessons

Excellent, Fun Experience
★★★★★
I highly recommend this surf school to anyone looking to learn about surfing and have a good time. I had surfed before solo and didn’t have the best results, but Zack helped me to get results by the fourth attempt I didn’t even think I would achieve that day. Great time!

Amazing surfing with Zach
★★★★★
Surfed with Zach and had an amazing lesson. Took lessons before and never stood up. First ride with Zach however, got up due to his beach lessons. Really really focuses on each person and what they struggle with. Very personal lessons way better than anyone else. You will surf by the end of the day!!

North Shore Surf School
★★★★★
Zac with the North Shore Surf School was awesome. He was patient and gave excellent instructions!! Both of our children were able to stand and surf with just one lesson. I would highly recommend this surf school if you are looking for lessons.

Fabulous Experience!
★★★★★
We had a fabulous time surfing with Zack. We were all first time surfers and he took extra time to teach us the basics and ensure that we all succeeded. Most important, Zack is extremely personable and FUN to be around! Lastly, Zack gave us AWESOME tips on where to eat and relax on Oahu! A five-star experience all the way around!

Amazing!
★★★★★
Zach and his team were amazing! None of us had ever surfed before (me, my husband, kids: 8, 10, 12), but Zach had all of us up and surfing in no time. These surf lessons were definitely a highlight of the trip for everyone! You should absolutely book with Zach at North Shore Ohana Surf School!

Learn To Surf On The North Shore Of Oahu

North Shore Ohana School of Surfing welcomes all ages and levels of surfing experience. Safety is our #1 priority which is why we pride ourselves to be Red Cross Ocean Safety certified and professional experienced instructors. Whether it is surfing, fishing and/or free diving we’ve spent our whole lives getting to know the oceans reefs, currents and humbling energy. When going on a surf adventure with us we are sure that you and your ohana will make memories that last a life time.

Meet Zack

Born & Raised on the North Shore. Family Owned & Operated

​Aloha! I’m Zack. Growing up on the North Shore, the ocean was more than just a beautiful backdrop—it was our way of life. Like many kids here, my days were filled with fishing, diving, and countless hours riding the waves. In these waters, I not only found fun but also a deep-rooted respect and understanding of the ocean’s rhythms.
The North Shore Ohana School of Surfing is a family-owned business, grounded in these very traditions of our local community. While being a professional surfer is a gift, not every surfer can translate their skills into teaching. That’s where my true passion lies. I want to help you get over any fears, find the joy in surfing, and make sure that joy sticks with you long after our lesson ends.
By choosing us, you’re not just picking a surf school. You’re joining our Ohana, diving into the North Shore culture, and making memories that’ll last a lifetime.
